Now I know what you’re thinking: what’s so special about pepper on eggs? Why are you finally deciding to make a big deal out of this? What even took you so long to write this article?

Well I’m very glad you asked! Pepper on egg is an absolutely big deal, not just for myself, but for everyone who enjoys their favorite breakfast of egg! Here are five reasons why it is so:

1. Pepper has quite a bit of health benefits.

According to SmartCooky.com, black pepper has a bunch of unexpected health benefits, such as stimulating digestion, improving your skin, and even acts as an agent against cancer! Combine that with the impressive 7 grams of protein and a collection of necessary vitamins and minerals, and you already got a recipe for one health-packed morning meal!

2. Pepper gives eggs that extra kick that can go with any combination of ingredients.

In addition to its health benefits, it’s spicy, zesty flavor can go with just about any ingredients that also go well with egg! Stuff like spinach, red and green peppers, ketchup, and even mushrooms make for a colorful and varied flavor combination that your taste buds just can’t resist.

3. Also gives eggs the extra pizzaz they need for those appetizing egg dishes.

Like just look at this.

Look at that beautiful pepper sprinkling on that delicious yolk. Just. So good.

4. Can go with any style of egg, too!

And ya’ll thought it goes well with sunny-side up? GUESS AGAIN. Goes well poached, scrambled, as an omelette, even boiled, as french toast and as breakfast burrito.

5. Just tastes better than eating eggs with salt. It just does.

Like at this point you shouldn’t even bother with salt on egg. Egg already got 62 grams of sodium. Do you really need more of that? Do you honestly need more sodium in your life than you already have? You find that shit on just about every single thing you eat everyday so don’t even try thinking about putting in more grimy salt onto that egg. Absolutely disgusting.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
